心里觉得好 Glad, quietly

彤管有炜,说怿女美。

The red flute glows; I am glad in your beauty.

诗经 · 静女 · our translation
怿 here is being pleased: not laughter, but the mind deciding that something is good. It is rare in names, and takes its value from that restraint. 「怿」在这里是「喜欢」——不是大笑,是心里觉得好。这个字在名字里少见,取的正是这份克制。

In a name

怿 is liking held in: one notch quieter than 悦.

「怿」是克制的喜欢——比「悦」安静一档。
